It’s an eclectic mix of gleaming skyscrapers and grandiose medieval, neo-classical and Art Nouveau buildings. The city centre is enclosed by an inner ring road, which follows the course that the medieval city fortifications took. It’s also split into two distinct areas – the Upper Town and Lower Town. There’s a lot to do in the large city centre area, from shopping in the glamorous boutiques and soaking up some culture in the grand museums of the Upper Town, to wandering around the city’s medieval heart in the Lower Town. Cultura Belgium’s culture blends the Flemish North and the French South to produce something very closely resembling the Parisian style, but slightly off-beat. The Belgians have a particular affinity towards the visual arts and performances, and are invariably involved in multiple forms of theatre, opera, ballet and stage music. Being home to thirty independent theatres upholds Brussels’ name as a mecca of the performing arts. Thus, the National Orchestra and the National Opera House are a must-see upon a visit to this city. Apart from lively alternative rock venues, jazzy crowds and classical music halls, all varieties of cutting-edge arts are popular in this European capital. Restouran From the traditional Belgian & French fare in and around Grand Place to the more exotic ethnic options such as the enjoyable Italian fare offered by the string of restaurants in “Little Italy” (along rue Franklin), Brussels is choc-a-bloc with engaging dining opportunities. <br /> Of course, we all know that Belgium is associated with Moules (mussels) et Frites (Chips) but it’s also regarded for a number of additional dishes that have been shaped by a variety of influences including the French, Spanish and Dutch who all ruled over the land at some point in History. In fact Belgians' culinary history can be traced back to the middle ages. <br /> You can enjoy starters such as Croquettes aux Crevettes Grises (shrimp) and Fondues au Fromage (a type of cheesy croquette). A speciality Belgian bread that is sweet is Choesels and Ardennes Pâté is a pâté comprised largely of pork and garlic. Then there are main dishes such as Filet Americain (served minced and raw mixed with onions and several spices). The Belgians do enjoy their red meat and it can form the basis of many a meal. Ragout d’agneau is a braised lamb dish that’s marinated with herbs. Pheasant and rabbit are also used in some speciality dishes like Faisan à la Brabançonne and Lapin dishes.   Shopping Brussels shopping is not limited to chocolates, beer and lace, although these three are definitely worth checking out for their quality and craftsmanship. During your Brussels vacation, you can sample the highest quality boutique shops and the most eclectic mix of goods at Brussels markets! Once you have located the best places to visit for each type of good, you may also want to have a look at how to buy the best Belgian chocolates, where to buy nice Belgian beer (without getting ripped off!) and also a few places to go for duty free and souvenir shopping. Most Brussels people will shop on Saturdays because shops are closed on Sundays. So if you want to avoid overcrowded shops and messy clothes racks, then avoid shopping on Saturday afternoons. On Sundays the shops near the Grand Place are generally open and so are some of the Brussels markets. Cost Moving on from the the expenses of Paris I made a short stop in Brussels. I still had a lot of countries to see on my trip and I knew the further north I went, the more expensive everything was going to become. So the plan was simple, meet up with a friend that had been one of the winners of my easter competition and enjoy a few beers. And that is exactly what I managed to do over the two day stop. Two days you say? how can two days be a good guide to costs in Belgium? I agree spending such a short time anywhere isn’t a very good guide to the overall costs of a place so feel free to take these costs as you please. With that said, here are my expenses.
